Edinburgh Hacklab visit for new followspot mount prototyping.

Edinburgh Hacklab generously let us use their laser to prototype and create new backs for the Edinburgh Military Tattoo followspot controllers, that allows the aiming sight to be mounted more rigidly.

It's extremely well equipped with machining and prototyping equipment that is available for use by members, plus of course the social aspect of being able to enjoy a mug of tea or coffee with like minded individuals. I particularly liked the repurposed display panels surrounding the place that display random useful information.
Another interesting feature is the safety controls on each machine that will only allow you to use it if you have the required skills to use it detected via your RFID tag.

If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:-

This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.
